RSS feeds now working!
RSS feeds are now working! Here is the link, just copy it into your RSS reader. Or, even better, use Opera. It has RSS built in!

In Opera you can just click on the little RSS button in your address bar
We've been busy little bees this weekend

For the record this Busy does not go buzz buzz, nor look good in yellow and black stripes.
Just had to set the record straight as this Busy has a reputation to live up to

Yes and every time I say or write that word I'm forced to think about the nutter from NZ ... Not by choice I might add
What's cool is that I found this post using the RSS feed (using Opera's built in RSS Reader of course!)

kinda scary really, hmm maybe a name change is in order, how about 'the'
or 'formerly known as busy', there is always 'hey you' or 'oi'

What browser are you using? If you don't have an RSS reader connected to your browser you have to copy and paste that URL into your RSS reader. (In Opera you can define helper applications for various protocols but I can't seem to find out how to do this in Firefox. Of course, IE doesn't know what RSS is so you have to copy and paste that too).
Hopefully someone can help with a list of good third party RSS readers. You can probably get an extension for Firefox.
Simpler just to use Opera, don't you think?

Searching but can't find much. I know ATOM is the next version of the standard but I don't know how that relates to RSS2.
Here's a list of news readers for those who need one:

Doesn't say anything about ATOM on there though.
